Mosley, After all the grand jurors had lt^cu 'worn, his Honor, in substance, delivered the following CKARCK TO Till: CJI5AN!) JfUY. Gentlemen of the (frand Jury : On you 1 levolves. in a great measure, the faithful 1 uul impartial administration of our laws, i >iir Legislators :is n rule have performed heir public duty by the emietment of vise and humane legislation. They iave introduced many changes conducive to economy in the administration j' >f justice, and I would impress upon you ! he importance of carrying out the reluirements of those laws, without regard o personal or private preference. While mors in a majority of cases have cornel i ip to the requirements of their duty, it I s to be regretted that the crime of homi-' ide does not seem to be on the decrease, j 1 :t is unfortunate that so many of our cit- j' zens have so little regard for human life. I judge from what I have seen. It has | ( >een my painful duty, within the last two i; ears, to sentence twenty men to death. Phis condition of ntfalrs at a time of pro- j i bund peace is appalling, and loudly calls \ or a reform in our manners and morals. I I'his habit of taking human life on every! iccasion of slight provocation, or imag- i uui\ injui\, irt ?i rcuuciu'ii u(M(i win j :itizenship that does no credit to our civ-L lization. I trust that you have the course to enforce the Jaws of the country. ^ 1 cannot account for the increase of r rime, except it be from the fact that the; erpctrator of crime can now so easily ' ibtain able and zealous counsel for his;'' lefence. Scientists have invented so J uany theories which may lie used, or resented to the Court, in "extenuation of he various crimes, tiiat often jurors have j ecu confused or misled to such an extent! sto prevent the proper enforcement of! lie laws against those who have commit-! cd crimes. There is now a recognized 'mania" for everything, which, when leaded in excuse for crime has often ! icen followed by the improper acquittal . f the criminal. I have no faith in the i ilea of that "mania" which attempts to J stalilish the belief that the offender i*. j usane at the instant of committing' J rime, when it is a recognized fact, that ie was sane a moment before and a mo-j ncnt after the commission of the deed.! i notable instance where this plea of i?-;"l anitv was made, was in the recent trial J f the person charged with the killing of ? he President of the United States, The j! 'mirf *iii(l inr\r uorn ft 11 1*1 t wm 1 'iQvidil nsly lor six weeks in trying the man for! lie shooting down of tiio Chief Execu-1 ive of tlie country, without any provocaion whatever, and in their verdict they! ive furnished you an example and I might a lesson to other juries of the, otintry, before whom this insutlicicnt ilea may be made. Toexcuso crime liner these fri\ ilous pretexts i.s not eredita- J le to the civilization of a country as in- { i-lligent and progressive as ours, j As this is the flrst term of your service j s grand jurors it is important that you now the obligations resting upon you I i the discharge of the duties of the high , tlicc which you bold.

The administration of (he laws by our; "rial Justices is a matter which vitally libels our people, an.l you .should not, I it any account, neglect to inspect their! i ooks. and to note any irregularities on | ic pari of these otticers which may come H >;your knowledge.

You may divide yourselves into| ommittces, if you desire to do so and j ash to expedite business, and your ' ody may adopt the recommendations j f the committees so appointed, and j lake a report of the same at the cud of be term, | * Your Solicitor, who is over activo and i ( arnest, will takegreat pleasure in giving , n on any desired aid or information. The hours of the Court will be from 2ii to four o'clock, r.nless the jury; hould express a preference for other! ours, in which event I shall endeavor to! ceonimodate myself to their wishes. j _ Keep your deliberations secret. Noth-! , npj winch takes place in the jury room 1 I hould become known to the public, cerecy is necessary not only tor the. roper enforcement of the laws, but forhe protection of yourselves and the wit- ] esses who may conic before you. The; _ ecreis of the jury room are a sacred J rust, to which none can be recreant I without a violation of the oath which cv-j ry juryman must take.

The first case brought to trial was, at j, >f the State against George Evans indict-!' ?d for burglary, breaking into and entering the gin house of Mr. James D. Foodie, and stealing therefrom 150 pounds >f seed cotton, Messrs. Blake and Gothran for the defence, Mr. Cothran was opposed togoing to trial at this time, urging that it would ba a great hardship on the % prisouor to force him to trial in the absence of both of his senior counsel, and of material witnesses, who if present, would swear that the prosecution was founded in mrtiiOe ; that the prisoner was the foreman on the plantation ofthe prosecutor, and that Archie Watts a witness for the prosecution had sworn that he would cause the defendent to lose his place, cost what it may. Solicitor Orr resisted the motion for i-ontinnanoe, and in reply said that the prisoner had had ample time to have his witnesses bound over, as this was the fourth time that his attorneys had a-sked for a continuance, and this being the first awe on the dockcl should be brought to trial. The Court held with the Solicitor, md ordered that George Evans be arraigned and put on trial. Verdict guilty. The next case tried was that of the Statu against AiUltonv Wardlaw c;liaif?otl .. ill. ut/wliiMr -I mil, IV,.,., M , I,,1,11 v\ Douglass, of the valuo of twenty dollars. There wore a threat many witnesses in this ease, both for the prosecution and defence?mostly females.

Several women of the village swore point blank that it was 110 such tiling, that the prisoner was here on the streets of the village ut the time that he was accused of selling the gun, and that it was impossible for him io be at two places at the same time. Tin 1 whole matter seemed to hang on a pies! ion of veracity between the pious 1 ?f the "Promised Lund" and the elite of the village, lie was convicted of petit larceny.
